  Slough Grammar School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The School was founded as Slough Secondary School in William Street, Slough, in 1912.
By 1936, the School had outgrown its premises and was split into Slough Grammar School for boys (1936 - 1982) in Lascelles Road and Slough High School for girls (1936 - 1982) in Twinches Lane, although the girls stayed on in the William Street buildings until 1939 when their new buildings were ready.
The original Slough Secondary School buildings in William Street were replaced in the 1960s by the tower blocks of Slough College.

One of the most devastating massacres was at Columbine High School in Colorado in April 1999 when two heavily armed teen-agers went on a rampage, shooting 13 students and staff before taking their own lives.
The survey found students at the highest risk of committing violence were boys in the 11th or 12th grade who felt alienated both at home and at school, were bullied and mistreated by their peers and who felt ignored by teachers, Gaughan said.
Despite the incidents, researchers stressed America's schools were among the safest place for children and there was less than a one in a million chance of a school shooting.
